Hi folks, I recently acquired an Alfa 159 2.2 JTS, with slightly over a year left. So I hurriedly installed a set of novitec sports springs as I've always preferred smaller gaps between fenders and tyres, hoping the stock shocks could handle the new springs. Unfortunately, they couldn't. If anyone is dekitting their after market shocks, please sms/WA me at 982o 878 nine. Thanks.

Hi mates, 

 

AROC sg seems to be under construction and I have been trawling through this thread from Part i-iX. I'm looking for a 159 Q4 manual - rare as heck I know and I'm a tad crazy. But I guess once you've been bitten by the snake, there is no cure! So do PM me if anyone has any leads. Thanks!

Surprised to see 7 year old 159 listing at $8+K depreciation. And those 8-9 years going for under $7K depreciation. Small Peroduas of the same age range are listing at such depreciation ! 

 

Even if the design is considered old, i think the brand deserve more respect than this !  Especially the 159, with its unique headlights and rear lights. It took my breath me away when i saw it in Rome in 2010, that i bought one the following month when i got back to SG. To me, it looks sexier than the Giulia anytime and was value for $ (if compared to Giulia's pricing vs the Germans).  

 

And i saw on sgcarmart that a same year Mito's depreciation is a few grand higher too !  Really feel sorry for the 159

My 159 was being scrapped for parts a few months ago, even though the coe is not due until December 2020

how are you bro

 

Sad that such a solid build car has to die an early death. Even at such low depreciation, Uber drivers are not buying it for their work

Sadly the FC will bankrupt the Grab/Uber drivers before the repairs get to them. Really loved the way the 159 drove but FC and reliability are not its forte. However, I do still look at other 159s on the road longingly like an old flame ;)

Hi there, need advice from current or past 159 owners. I intend to get a 2010-2011 159 as a second car. Never driven an Alfa before but with resale prices for 159 really tempting finally following my heart to buy one despite reading all the problems with the car. The dealers I've been to refused to allow me to send the cars for STA inspection so I'm taking a gamble here. I want the car to be problem free till COE expires. The cars I've seen have milleage of 110K-150k. I plan to send the car for servicing once I've collected it. Need members to advise 1)possible parts to replace/repair for that kind of milleage 2) recommmended workshop 3) budget I should put aside

Many thanks!
